I agree, Toby, and that's what I was thinking. Not sure we can do much for a couple of weeks, though. I'll be on the road this next week, probably with limited Internet connectivity, and when I am back life will be hectic. But..then it all calms down for me--but not necessarily for anyone else--we'll see what we can do. It may be that the preference is to do major changes when the software upgrade occurs later this year.
BTW, unlike some forums where you get some people averaging 69 posts per day <gasp! Where is the time in a 24-hour day to do that??> and members are rewarded for high volumes of posts in that they get bumped up to various levels (even if their all their posts contain nothing but a smilie), that's never been the purpose here.
Check out the guidelines--even the GD was supposed to somehow connect to Mike, though if you perform a search, you can find old threads of total off-topicness. ATM, I'd be for a General-General Discussion. It does build community and gives people something to do between masterpieces. It could be pruned, keeping only the current year or two. Maybe we should do like some Boards out there, and name all of the forums something associated with the titles of MO pieces. For example, "Rumours" could become "Source of Secrets" or some such thing (and the forum description would further clarify what we meant by the title). I dunno. Only time will tell....
